About this work

Overview

Helios is a print by Lovis Corinth, dated to around 1901, and is part of the collection at The Cleveland Museum of Art.

Subject & Meaning

The print depicts a chaotic scene featuring three horses and a rider, with a shadowy figure seated below, partially obscured by the turmoil. The horses appear frenzied, their bodies contorted and dynamic.

Technique & Style

Corinth employed rapid, irregular strokes to convey a sense of movement and tension, leaving the scene raw and unrefined. The expressive lines contribute to the overall feeling of urgency and energy.
